CRIVITZ, Wisc. — Sheriff deputies were dispatched to the Peshtigo river Saturday responding to reports of a woman who had been separated from a group of people tubing on the river.

Marinette County Sheriff Jerry Sauve says the call came in around 4 p.m.

Shortly after 7:00 p.m. (CST), emergency responders with the help of a Crivitz resident located a female submerged in the river. She was pronounced dead on scene.

The woman is a 26 year old woman from Green Bay, but her name is being withheld at this hour until authorities can notify her family.
